Who's Got Some "Stuck Mic" Stories ??

[dkelly]

I was listening to the radio when I heard a fellow flight student with a stuck mic. I could hear the tower trying to contact them to inform them of the situation. During this time frame, the guy is switching headsets cussing the entire time. Finally, he finds that the push to talk has came apart, wiggles it and hears the mic unstick. The tower informs him of the stuck mic and the student requests taxi back to the ramp because of the problems. Tower replies "Yeah, we heard your comments".

Ahhh yes, beware the quiet center frequency........

I amend my post on the TCAS thing as being the best invention in 40 years.....the little "T" that displays on the radio when you are transmitting has to be a close second to TCAS as the best invention!

 

[urflyingme?!]

I dont know if this counts, but you ever turn down center on accident?

and often times the controller will call "everybody check their mic, there's a stuck mic on freqency" (as if the stuck mic a/c would hear that?)

similar situation to a stuck mic/PA on VHF, we would use "short count" 123.45 as a intercom in airplanes without a real intercom. so i had a girl that was in the front row come forward to look at the statue of liberty (JFK-DCA) and as she was leaning over the co-pilot trying to spot it in 3 miles/haze, i was giving a compete diatribe on what i thought of this knock-out and what we could do together. we were well past atlantic city before we let her give up trying to see it. when we got out of the navajo in DCA, a rear seat PAX stayed behind to tell us we were crude but hilarious, but we should check to see if anyone is listening to one of those new walkman things, we came over his headset loud and clear...maybe 1985...

Setting: The first X-Prize launch at MHV, in the middle of a crowd of tens of thousands.

Over the PA: "Somebody with a handheld out there has a stuck mike, everybody with a transceiver please double check it."

Same event:

Mission control (or whatever they're called) "Spaceship one, blah blah blah switch to mission 2" (or something like that)

Unidentified voice: "and, uh, what frequency would that be?"

One time I called Ground on, um, ground point five.

A Buddy of mine and his wife were flying around, he was instructing her in the fine art of landing a tailwheel airplane. We got the full narration, including the very angry argument that took place on downwind where they called each other every name in the book and invented a few new ones. We even found out how he was in bed...but that was an image I didn't need.
They didn't speak to each other for a couple of days after that.

Accidental PA story....

Captain comes on the PA at cruise altitude after turning the seatbelt sign off, blah, blah, blah.

After which he says to the co-pilot, "I'll I need now is a beer and a blow job."

The Flight Attendant in horror goes running throught the isle to the cockpit to tell the Captain he is on the PA and a passenger in first class says to her as she frantically passes by, "don't forget the beer!"

That's got to be one of the funniest stories yet, and I also got a good laugh out of Falcon2000's Gulfstream/Lineman story.

Actually they've all been great, keep em coming guys!
